Hi Ania,

Immediately I think, What did your Ghost do in 7th grade? Because clearly his test scores show he either self-taught or maybe the school had something worthwhile.

Second thought is what my kids are using in middle school: Caesar's English. The LA teacher said it was recommended by William & Mary College gifted ed program. It is excellent for vocabulary development (and DS12 says it's fun, too) as well as grammar/usage.
